My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Leia is a cutie with a spotted tongue, one ear up/one down combo and the most expressive eyebrows! She is a healthy, athletic, 3 year old, 65lb German Shepherd mix. She is spayed, vaccinated and microchipped. She is also housebroken, crate trained, and loves walks and car rides! Leia really just wants someone to adore and to give endless kisses! She is very excited when you first get home and sometimes jumps up, but she settles down and is happy to hang out with you while you work or just watch TV. Of course, she certainly would also enjoy going for a hike and exploring! She loves being outside and spends a lot of her day relaxing in the yard where she can sunbathe! Leia is a little nervous around new people, but it doesn't take her long to get comfortable and become your loyal companion. She is very alert and has a high prey drive so no cats! Although she has been fine around other dogs, she can be dominant and cranky with some so we think she would do best as the only pet in her next home. She also should go to a home without small children. If you're interested in meeting Leia, please visit our website at www.dominoeffectanimalrescue.org to fill out an adoption application!

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

Go to our website to fill out an Adoption Application! We will review your app and, if your home is a good match for the pet, we well email you to set up a meeting with your family and current pets. If all goes well at the meeting, we offer a foster to adopt program where you can take home the pet you're interested in for up to two weeks to make sure he/she is a good fit for your home and is welcomed by your other current animals. We just ask that you leave the adoption fee as a deposit before taking your pet home. Any time within the two weeks, if you decide the pet is a perfect addition to your family, let us know and sign the Adoption Contract, we will hand over all vaccine paperwork, and the pet is yours! (If you decide the pet is not for you, the deposit will be returned in full)

Adoption Fees:
$400 for puppies (6mo or younger)
$350 for adult dogs
$250 for senior dogs (8+years)

$150 for kittens (6mo or younger)
$125 for adult cats
$100 for senior cats

Adoption application

Go meet their pets

Potential adopters must submit an application before setting up a private meeting with that specific animal. Once application is reviewed, we will email to make arrangements to set the date/time. We ask that the entire family and current pets are present. Meetings are held at the animals location or at your home. We also have adoption shows occasionally where you can come down and meet some of our adoptable pets. Please check our Facebook page at www.facebook.com/dominoeffectanimalrescue to find out when our next show will be!

More about this rescue

Domino Effect Animal Rescue is a 501c3 non profit, no kill animal rescue located in Temecula Valley, California dedicated to saving the lives of animals in county shelters. By taking in some of these homeless animals, we hope to ease the overcrowding in shelters which leads to euthanasia. We provide care and love to all animals that enter our rescue as they await their loving, forever homes. Each animal is spayed/neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, and examined by a licensed veterinarian. Some animals require more medical care than the basics and we help them heal so that they can live healthy lives with their next family. We also work on basic obedience and socialization skills to help each pet develop desired behaviors for their future family.
